    Snippet: The figure below illustrates the requirement for the adjustment for epidemic growth for these onsetto-outcome distributions. We simulated a growing epidemic up to day 60 (number of cases on day 1 = 2, growth rate=0.14, doubling time 5 days). The simulated onset-to-outcome distribution if everyone had been followed up until their outcome was observed is shown by the black bars whilst the onsetto-outcome distribution observed at day 60, censoring t.....
    Document: The figure below illustrates the requirement for the adjustment for epidemic growth for these onsetto-outcome distributions. We simulated a growing epidemic up to day 60 (number of cases on day 1 = 2, growth rate=0.14, doubling time 5 days). The simulated onset-to-outcome distribution if everyone had been followed up until their outcome was observed is shown by the black bars whilst the onsetto-outcome distribution observed at day 60, censoring those whose outcome is not yet observed is shown by the red bars. The uncorrected Gamma distribution fitted to the observed outcome times at day 60 is shown in red and the Gamma distribution fitted to the observed outcome times at day 60, corrected for epidemic growth, is shown in blue. The latter recovers the true distribution whilst the uncorrected fit results in distribution that is biased towards shorter durations.
